In a Taoist temple outside the city, Li Qiang was sitting in front of a fat old Taoist priest who was wearing a Taoist robe, a bun on his head, and white leggings on his feet.
He looked pious, hoping that the Coal Master in front of him could help him resolve the confusion in his heart.
"Master, I heard that you can predict the past 500 years and the future 500 years. You know everything about the world. I hope you can guide me."
Master Mei seemed to be pretending to be asleep, but he squinted his eyes and saw through the slits of his eyes a young man kneeling in front of him with a look of despair on his face.
Another love-struck pervert, Mei Zhenren thought.
He didn't want to bother with this man. It was ridiculous for a grown man to be tied down by love affairs. It was obvious that he was not going to accomplish anything great.
But this young man had been nagging in front of him for a long time, not only preventing him from resting, but also ruining several of his business deals.
This man is not only a long-winded man, but also a tactless man.
Master Mei was very upset. If he didn't say a few words to him, he didn't know how long he would stay.
So, he pretended to pinch his fingers back and forth a few times and slowly said, "Everything in the world is fate, it is destined, it is a disaster, there is no escape, the worldly troubles are endless, there is no need to get too entangled, as long as you cross the line in your heart, all thoughts will be gone.
Troubles arise from being too obsessed with something and unable to let it go. Sometimes, only by knowing how to choose and understand the gains and losses can you live more freely.
"Master, how can I let it go?" Li Qiang asked hurriedly when he saw the master finally speak.
Mei Zhenren thought, how could I possibly let go? I know everything I want, so why would I be here telling people about their relationships and selling glass pendants? I would have flown off to the mountains and become an immortal long ago.
"Some things are so strange that you only feel confused after experiencing them firsthand. Some things are so mysterious that you see them with your own eyes but still don't understand why. Only by slowly exploring can you know how to let go."
Master Mei shook his head and Li Qiang was confused. When he asked again, Master Mei began to doze off again.
Li Qiang felt that he was extremely stupid and could not even understand what Master Mei said. He was not worthy of sitting in front of him and asking questions.
He stood up and quietly stepped aside. Master Mei said that only by slowly exploring can one know how to let go.
Li Qiang pondered for a long time and finally figured it out! He excitedly picked up the broom next to him and started to help Mei Zhenren sweep the floor. After sweeping the floor, he picked up the wooden bucket and went to fetch water.
When Master Mei said to slowly explore, he was hinting that he should stay here and think slowly, and go back when he has figured it out.
From that day on, there was a young man doing odd jobs around Mei Zhenren. He rushed to cook meals and wash clothes, and worked very hard even without getting paid.
Master Mei was really impressed by himself. He didn't say anything, but he could trick someone into willingly doing things for him. This was a real skill. Fortunately, he had enough to eat, so he could afford to support one more person.
Several days later, Li Li coaxed Liang Ying into giving up, and then she remembered to go see her brother. However, when she pushed the door open, she saw that the room was empty, the fire was out, and the pot was cold. It was obvious that no one had been there for several days.
The bicycle and bag are not there, it seems that he went out by bike.
She panicked a little and went out to call her workplace. The company said that Li Qiang had not come to work for several days. They also said that he was riding the company's bicycle and asked when it would be convenient for him to be delivered.
Li Li hurriedly asked for leave for him and said he would go back to work in a few days.
